Wigs through airport?
Is it possible to wear a wig through an airport? (Like the whole journey) Once you enter, to your next destination?
Would security stop you?
Would the machine beep?
For example; If you're wearing a realistic wig as your hair is too short, and this is a faster process for it to be longer and a new style.
Could you walk through like anybody?
A wig is less likely to beep as wearing extensions which has loads of metal clips and I never get stopped for that - they just give me a knowing look lol - I stick some hair clips in so they will assume it's that. As long as it matches your photo don't worry.
If you see a couple hundred people go through the airport, some of them will have wigs. No law prohibits people who wear wigs from going through most airports. If you do not match your picture in your ID, you might have to explain or even demonstrate.
There's no problem with wearing a wig through security. Women, and men, do this everyday and are not stopped. Hair type and style is not an issue.
The only reason they would stop you is if your wig makes you look very un-like your ID (and I've gone through with short hair on a long-haired passport photo), or if your wig has metal fastening clips or some-such. And even then, it would be a quick one off to get it chicked out and certify that it is just a wig and you're not smuggling explosives or something under it, after wich you would be free to complete your journey in all your rockin wiggy glory. Wigs are quite common, and I don't think anyone would bat an eyelid at you wearing a natural-looking one in an airport.
It's not illegal to wear a wig or change your hair color however if your look drastically different than your photo ID, they could hold you up for further verification.
In all likelihood, no-one would notice, or care.
No

Not a problem.
At the very most, they MIGHT ask you to step aside into a private room for five minutes so they can have a closer look. But very, very unlikely. Thousands of people wear wigs for a dozen different legitimate reasons.
- Can I pass through Airport Security with Cooked lunch in my Carry-on/Personal during travels to the USA? I plan on making a trip to the USA for the summer, However, one of my flights has a long stop where I will be waiting for more than 10 hours until the next plane departs. As you can imagine that's a lot of waiting, and I don't want to buy the expensive food available at the airport. So is it okay to prepare a cooked meal and bring along with me? Example: Baked Chicken and Rice with steamed vegetables.
- Asthma suffers do you have any problems taking your inhalers through Airport security? I'm off to Canada tomorrow from Heathrow and I have packed two inhalers in my hand luggage, they are in a clear re-sealable bag, I don't have the original box or prescription. Should this cause any issues? Has anyone else had any issues getting inhalers through Airport security?

- Bringing a CPAP machine through security at Frankfurt Airport? My wife and I are going to Germany later this year. She has to use a CPAP machine. We've never had any trouble flying domestically with it here in the US Is there anything special to do with it when going through security in Frankfurt for our flight back to the US or should it be as easy as it is here in the States? We're on Delta Airlines, if that matters at all.
